Anchor of Hope (Aqua Blue Remix) | Remix Collection: Part 5

Alas!

Tis' the end of the weekend and also the end of the Remix collection!

Let's go out with a bang, shall we?

One of the most popular collections thus far has been the Personalised Statement Bracelets collection, probably due to its highly customisable nature and also the various encouraging statements in the bracelets that one can wear as inspiration / motivation themselves and others. My favourite would be the Anchor of Hope bracelet, which also has been customised in a slightly different manner here. Back then, these bracelets were all in shades of purple. 

I figured, since the key charm in this piece - the Anchor - is usually set in the sea, I would remix the Anchor of Hope bracelet in aqua blue, befitting those who love the ocean and those who love nautical symbolism. Here's the aqua blue remix -

 Crystals in shades of aquamarine and sapphire, a round-double twisted ring link, a chinese knot link, an anchor charm, a Hope bead and an aquamarine Swarovski heart.

 The round double-twisted ring and chinese knot link represent our unbreakable bonds with friends and family - those who anchor us, keep us grounded, keep us from drifting away, give us hope.

Item Code & Name: 256 Anchor of Hope (Aqua Blue Remix)

Price: RM24.00

Status: [Sold], Available for remakes

Materials: Sapphire Round Faceted Chinese Crystals, Aquamarine and Light Sapphire Chinese Crystal Doughnuts, Aquamarine Czech "Preciosa" Fire-Polished Glass Beads, Round Double Twisted Ring Link, Chinese Knot Link, Anchor Charm, Hope Bead, Aquamarine Swarovski Heart

I actually prefer this to the original!

Which do you prefer?

Anybody all caught up in World Cup fever?

Netherlands vs Mexico tonight! I'm supporting the Netherlands! Last night's (this early morning's) Brazil vs Chile match was soooo nerve-wracking. Those penalties were almost heart-stopping. And that's coming from someone who's not a super strong supporter of either team (though I was rooting for Brazil to win coz I like watching Neymar play). :D

Ok I'll stop blabbering on about football. Not that appropriate for an accessories site, eh? :p

Gutenbye!

Blush Burgundy | Remix Collection: Part 4

Happeh Saturday, people of the world!

I plan to spend it firmly attached to my comfy bed. :)

But first! Here's the first necklace to be featured in this Remix collection. Today's Blush Burgundy necklace is a remix of the Lush Lavender necklace that was posted sometime back, which was in turn a customisation of the original Lush Lavender bracelet. This time, it's been remixed in shades of burgundy and blush purple - thus its name. :)

 Dusty purple and and burgundy faux pearls, burgundy chinese crystal doughnuts, flower links and a dark burgundy flower cabochon on an intricately-patterned charm

 This is the first time the dark burgundy flower cabochon has featured in any Dainty Little Trinket. I quite like the rich, regal tone of this necklace. 

Item Code & Name: 255 Blush Burgundy

Price: RM22.00

Status: [Sold], Available for remakes

Materials: Burgundy & Dusty Purple Faux Pearls, Burgundy Chinese Crystal Doughnuts, Dark Burgundy Flower Cabochon, Intricately-Patterned Round Charm, Flower Links

Measurements: Approximately 44.5cm (including clasp) + 4cm extender chain

That's all for now, stay tuned tomorrow for the last post in this collection!

Demure Daisies (Baby Blue Remix) | Remix Collection: Part 3

Oopsie daisies!

That's one of my favourite British phrases, as uttered by Hugh Grant's character in Notting Hill. Quite unmanly and very silly. :p

Anyway, if you haven't already gathered - part 3 of the Remix collection is about daisies! Way back when, I posted this Demure Daisies bracelet, which is still one of my favourites, as it is so very feminine and sweet and demure. It's been customised in shades of purple (here!), and now has been remixed in soft baby blue tones -

 Pale blue and light silver faux pearls, together with antique silver-plated flower beads and a heart-shaped toggle at the end.

 Adding a dash of bright colour to this otherwise soft-toned bracelet is the bright blue daisy - such a cheerful hue!

Item Code & Name:  254 Demure Daisies (Baby Blue Remix)

Price: RM17.00

Status: [Sold], Available for remakes

Materials: Pale Blue and Silver Faux Pearls, Flower Beads, Bright Blue Daisy Cabochon, Flower-Shaped Filigree Link, Heart Toggle Clasp

Measurements: Approximately 17.5cm

I'm still a bigger fan of the original pink bracelet, but those who love blue now have this remix as an option!

To order, please email me at

As always, customisation is possible!

Scarlet Nightingale | Remix Collection: Part 2

Hi hello!

Part 2 of the Remix collection goes down memory lane with a creation from Dainty Little Trinket's very first collection - the Fly Me To The Moon collection. :) This post features a remix of the Nightingale bracelet and earrings set, which has been quite popular and has also been customised in different colour schemes (ivory or rosaline!) and with the addition of Swarovski hearts (click here!).

Pretty in Purple | Remix Collection: Part 1

Hola amigos!

Hope you're having a nice, lazy Sunday. :)

Here's the first post in the Remix collection, a remix of the popular Pretty in Pink bracelet that I posted close to a year ago. This bracelet was originally part of a bracelet and earring set that I made as a birthday gift for my friend Adeline. Since then, it's become quite a popular item and has also spawned various customisations like the Sleek in Silver bracelet, and an entire Pretty in Pink set (check out the lovely necklace - still one of my favourite creations).

This time, I decided to remix the bracelet in shades of purple - Pretty in Purple.

 Formerly in shades of rosaline and ivory, this Remix comes in shades of purple and silver.

 Tiny silver pearls matched with larger, alternating soft lilac and dusty purple pearls, antique silver-plated flower beads, a heart clasp and a Made with Love charm at the end of the extender chain.

Item Code & Name: 251 Pretty in Purple

Price: RM16.00

Status: [Sold], Available for remakes

Materials:  Silver, Lilac and Dusty Purple Faux Pearls, Antique Silver-Plated Flower Beads, Heart Clasp, Made with Love Charm

Measurements: Approximately 17.5cm (including clasp) + 2cm extender chain

That's all for tonight's post!

Do you like the original more or this remixed version more?

If you think it would be better suited in some other colour scheme, you could always customise one to suit your tastes. :)

Good night, and have a lovely week ahead!

The Remix Collection - Masterpost

Happy Saturday!

It's been a while since I posted a collection of items, the last being the Disney Princess collection in April.

Since it was our 1 year anniversary last month, I was thinking back to the time this all started - the fun, the stress, the outpouring of ideas and giddy love for beads and charms, and utter joy when people loved my items and wanted to purchase them. Some items have been unexpectedly popular - you never know what items will be well-liked till you post them! :p

And that brings us to this collection! I thought it would be fun to "remix" some of Dainty Little Trinkets' popular items - changing up the beads here and there and changing up the colour schemes, in tribute to "surviving" a year with the support of all you lovely readers. :) So this collection is dedicated to you.

Hope all of you will like these "remixed reinventions" as much as the original items! Starting tomorrow (Sunday), there'll be a series of posts for this new collection:

Part 1: Pretty in Purple
Part 2: Scarlet Nightingale
Part 3: Demure Daisies (Baby Blue Remix)
Part 4: Blush Burgundy
Part 5: Anchor of Hope (Aqua Blue Remix)

I'm excited! Hope you are too.
See you Sunday!

❤
